sounds like I need to be there.Does any body know how physical the match will be?gun)

Hey Marshal we need some .296 bullets that can keep up with 230gr Berger hybrid can it be done?? I would love to try them in the 290 Ambrose.....:)

BC Thanks mikecr for your bc figures& twist

Performer .296 SAUM aka 290 USA 198gr bullets@2900 fps and BC of .67s ,not to mention 3800+ft pounds of energy with 63gr MRP.WHO can beat it?gun)

Re: The missing link .296 cal. l received my new 7mm mag brass today. Bullets, dies, reamer, stock, action, scope everything except the barrel to start the .290 mag build.The barrels should be here any day.I can't wait to try out the HS detach mag.on this beast. :)gun):D

Re: The missing link .296 cal. Hey guys if interested, Mcgowen Precision builds the .296 bbls but they only sell to Mac's gunworks. Broughton also builds bbls & those can be orderd direct.gun)

I took another $5.00 from my buddy Milo today with the ole 290USA at 1450, had to fight with him but he did pay. BTT

so you don't think we need 25~06 or the 270 win? we do have bullets 180 , 190 &198gr from matrix Ballistics in .296 cal. 198s@ 2900 witha BC of .660+ with 63 gr and nearly 2 tons of energy @ the muzzle .Bbl wear should be minimal, = more shooting:))

hey guys, we have 24 cal., 25 cal, 26 cal, 27 cal, 28 cal, and now 29 CALIBER. Im trying the ultra short action and calling it the 290 USA. Running 198 grainers at 2900 FPS. It shoots bug holes at 100 yards and 4" groups at a grand. I figure the BC on the 198s set .660 or better. i've fired...
